    Tank/Enclosure/Terra Question

    Hey everyone.

    I got a baby BP that is currently living in a breeding box, and will live there for some time until he's older and larger.

    I'm already starting to plan a cage/tank/terra for him though. As i understand it a 120 cm long (40 gal long?) will do just fine for the rest of his life.

    It's pretty hard to find one in that size where i live though, and if i do find one they are way to high / and or wide aswell...I've noticed a few people have the "ZILLA" tank. Those look pretty much perfect.

    What to the top of the Zilla tanks look like? (Glass or net?) Where's the ventilation placed on those?
    What do you guys use? What brands? Where did you buy them?

    Note: I live in Sweden, hence the centimeters and all =)

    I'm not sure if there are any PVC cage makers in Europe or not, I would look and see if they are. large tanks like what you are talking about are very difficult to keep the proper temperatures/humidity in.

    Here is a thread I wrote on PVC cages. if you can get one, they are the best... if not plastic tubs or a custom made enclosure would be best. Tanks suck lol

    I believe that the Zilla tanks have a wire mesh top
